## Usage

### JavaScript
#### Installation
```sh
yarn add @docsearch/js@3
# or
npm install @docsearch/js@3
```
If you dont want to use a package manager, you can use a standalone endpoint:
```html
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@docsearch/js@3"></script>
```
#### Get started
To get started, you need a [`container`](https://docsearch.algolia.com/docs/api#container) for your DocSearch component to go in. If you dont have one already, you can insert one into your markup:
```html
<div id="docsearch"></div>
```
Then, insert DocSearch into it by calling the [`docsearch`](https://docsearch.algolia.com/docs/api) function and providing the container. It can be a [CSS selector](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-us/docs/web/css/css_selectors) or an [Element](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-us/docs/web/api/htmlelement).
Make sure to provide a [`container`](https://docsearch.algolia.com/docs/api#container) (for example, a `div`), not an `input`. DocSearch generates a fully accessible search box for you.
```js app.js
import docsearch from '@docsearch/js';
import '@docsearch/css';
docsearch({
container: '#docsearch',
appId: 'YOUR_APP_ID',
indexName: 'YOUR_INDEX_NAME',
apiKey: 'YOUR_SEARCH_API_KEY',
});
```
### React
#### Installation
```bash
yarn add @docsearch/react@3
# or
npm install @docsearch/react@3
```
If you dont want to use a package manager, you can use a standalone endpoint:
```html
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@docsearch/react@3"></script>
```
#### Get started
DocSearch generates a fully accessible search box for you.
```jsx App.js
import { DocSearch } from '@docsearch/react';
import '@docsearch/css';
function App() {
return (
<DocSearch
appId="YOUR_APP_ID"
indexName="YOUR_INDEX_NAME"
apiKey="YOUR_SEARCH_API_KEY"
/>
);
}
export default App;
```
